Abstrakt: | Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) is the gold standard for osteoporosis screening and diagnosis. However, abdominal conventional computed tomography (CT) scan is widely available and multiple studies validated its use as a screening tool for osteoporosis compared to DEXA. The aim of this study was to determine the reliability of measuring core muscle size at the L3-L4 intervertebral disk space and estimate the relationship between core muscle size and bone mineral density (BMD) measured by DEXA. Retrospective chart review was performed on patients who underwent a DEXA scan for osteoporosis and a conventional abdominal CT scan within one-year apart. Total cross-sectional area (CSA) and Hounsfield Unit (HU) density of core muscles (psoas, paraspinal, and abdominal wall muscles) were measured. The association between psoas, paraspinal, abdominal, and central muscle CSA and Bone Mineral density (BMD) at L3, L4, total Lumbar Spine (LS), and right (R) and left (L) hip was estimated in crude and adjusted for age and sex linear regression models. Sixty patients (37 females, 23 males) met the inclusion criteria. The average interval between DEXA and abdominal CT scans was 3.6 months (range 0.1-10.2). Psoas muscle density was significantly positively associated with R hip BMD in both crude and adjusted models (β = 20.2, p = 0.03; β = 18.5, p = 0.01). We found a significant positive linear association between psoas muscle CSA and HU density with BMD of LS, R, and L hip in both crude and adjusted models. The strongest significant positive linear association was observed between total abdominal CSA and R hip BMD in crude and age and sex adjusted (ß = 85.3, p = 0.01; ß = 63.9, p = 0.02, respectively). CT scans obtained for various clinical indications can provide valuable information regarding BMD. This is the first study investigating association between BMD with central muscle density and CSA, and it demonstrated their significant positive the association.
